A Starry Night

I open my eyes to a dream-like paradise
An utopia my heart can't fathom
An abyss I wish to fall into
But now I get to watch it crumbling down
I get to watch my dream elude
To the mysteries of the stars
Like a rose planted in the moonlight
She faded into the sky
Even with the radiance of the moon shining so brightly
The shadow in my heart ran to the other side
Even at night
when the stars shine brightly
It still remained
For I am like a star
One of many
